HydroPoly BMW E39 E38 Z8 540i 740i M5 Control Arm Long Life Bushings UPGRADE (2)

HydroPoly BMW E39 540i and E39 M5 Control/Tension Arm TWO (2) Bushings UPGRADE with installation and greasing hardware

When the stock rubber bushings get old they harden, flex, become brittle and start to break down, allowing the front suspension to handle and steer in an unintended way.

This causes poor handling, suspension noises, knock upon bump taking, straight line wandering and uncomfortable feeling to push the car into corners.

This bushing design, reduces most excessive movements of the suspension links, offers the longest life possible with easy, occasional lubing, restores new car ride comfort and offers handling improvements previously unmatched with OEM rubber bushings.

While this bushing design reduces axial link movements for excellent power transfer from the drive train to the ground, it does not contribute excessive NVH (Noise, Vibration and Harshness) to the driver inside the cabin due to the HydroPoly design and the softer properties of the polyurethane compound used.

Our HydroPoly bushing upgrade to the OEM bushings, is made of high quality, soft polyurethane material with steel sleeve. It will not only firm up the front end and eliminate that mushy feel associated with aging factory rubber bushings, but it will keep the tire contact patch properly on the road and have a very long service life compared to its OEM rubber counterpart. This results in tight suspension control, more ride enjoyment, noticeably improved cornering AND reduces future labor costs and vehicle down time.

The Hydropoly bushing comes complete with its installation hardware. The bolt is Zerk fitted with carefully drilled hole to allow for regular internal lubrication of the bushing. Once installed, synthetic grease needs to be applied and packed in.

This bushing design, once pressed in and installed properly, seals itself shut so once installed a healthy shot of synthetic grease needs to be applied. Grease helps prolong the life of PU, keeps it pliable and helps in dampening any NVH from the drive train contributing to the famed comfort of those bushings.

The bushing needs to be pressed in properly. The sleeve of each half needs to be pressed in, then the PU followed by the internal metal pins, which are made to get pressed in into each other and seal the bushing. The Zerk fitting end needs to be pointed properly for easier clearance for on the vehicle lubrication.

This design will likely outlast any bushing design currently on the market. Occasional lubrication is suggested to maintain comfort and longevity of the bushing.
